Schultz Leads by Four Going into Final Round at US Masters Championships
Date Published
The US Masters Championships have reached their final stages, and it's been a thrilling ride so far. After two days of competition at Nevin and Bradford Park, the top players are ready to put everything on the line in the last round. Barry Schultz has taken the lead with an impressive performance, but Kevin McCoy is hot on his heels.
Schultz had a strong start at Bradford Park yesterday, carding a 10-under-par score of 45 in the morning round. However, it wasn't enough to keep him ahead of McCoy and Ken Climo, who both pulled ahead by one or two strokes. The real story of the day was Cameron Todd and Matt Peckham, who absolutely dominated the course with 15 birdies each. Despite this, Schultz managed to regain his momentum in the afternoon round, carding a -14 score that put him at the top of the leaderboard.
As we head into the final round, Schultz is four strokes ahead of McCoy. The competition will be fierce, but it's anyone's game. Will Schultz hold on to his lead, or will McCoy make a comeback? The answer will have to wait until tomorrow, when the players tee off at Nevin at 12:30pm EDT.
Meanwhile, in other divisions, Elaine King is pulling away from the pack in the Grandmasters division. She shot an impressive round of 66 on the par-64 Nevin layout and now has a six-stroke lead over Des Reading and Debbie Scott. The top players in each division are all within one stroke of each other, making for a nail-biting finish.
The Grandmasters division has been particularly exciting, with multiple ties breaking throughout the day. Stan McDaniel is currently in the lead by just one throw, but Eric Vandenberg is hot on his heels and has moved into fourth place after shooting an impressive 8-under-par score of 56.
Tomorrow will be a thrilling day as the top players in each division compete for the championship.
